A new week of cerebral shenanigans kicks off Down Under this Monday with “Claire Hooper’s House of Games.” Stand-up comedian Claire Hooper presides over the playful chaos as four famous faces go head-to-head in a trivia battle royale.
This week’s contestants offer an eclectic mix: author and broadcaster Benjamin Law, drag superstar Courtney Act, sports journalist Abbey Gelmi, and comedian Anthony Lehmann. From pop culture to history, science to wordplay, these celebs will have their knowledge tested with a barrage of Hooper’s signature “noodle-busters.”
The format is simple yet effective: each episode features a series of trivia-based games, puzzles, and riddles. Points are tallied throughout the week, with the ultimate victor claiming not only bragging rights but also the coveted “House of Games” trophy—and, because Australia, a miniature blender. It’s high-stakes stuff, folks.
So, who will emerge as the ultimate brainiac? Can Benjamin Law outwit the competition? Will Courtney Act slay with her knowledge? Tune in to ABC and ABC iview starting Monday, 19 May at 6:30 pm to witness the mental mayhem unfold.
